The Miami Heat are looking to close out the series against the Boston Celtics in Game 5 of the Eastern Conference Finals on Friday night.  Tyler Herro was the actual hero in Game 4 by shooting 66% from the field and scoring a career-high 37 points. This is an elimination game for the Celtics and they should come to this game ready to play, they will need to control Jimmy Butler and Tyler Herro or the Heat will advance to the NBA Finals tonight.

Can the Celtics force a Game 6 or will Tyler Herro have something to say about that?  Tune in to Game 4 and follow the NBA Eastern Conference Finals action right here!

Game 5: Miami Heat vs. Boston Celtics

When: Friday, September 25 Time: 8:30 p.m. ET TV Channel: ESPN Live Stream: fuboTV (watch for free)

Prediction: It has been very tough to stop the Heat, they have been playing lights out since the playoffs began. As much as I’d like to think the Celtics will cover, I’d stay with the Heat +3 and take the Celtics in the first half.

Bet: Celtics 1Q & 1H -1.5 and Heat +3
